The hotel is set in beautiful grounds. We stayed in room 119, it was beautifully decorated. I just wish that you could turn a light/lamp to really bright to make reading a book easier. The walls are thin, you can hear everything!! That being said i would stay here again.

1-night trip

10/10

Most positive aspect of the hotel was the staff who were outstanding in every area of the hotel including reception, bar and restaurant. The rooms were a bit dated but in good condition, mattress was not the best. Food quality was good and both food and drink decent value. The location is really nice with a lake at the front and a canal to the back. Overall very pleased and would certainly stay again.
